I should introduce myself too, to the new comers! Welcome! I am also a succulent lover, and grow 48 (and growing) distinct named varieties and species. They truly are addictive! I, too, prefer species, but do have a bunch of hybrids or / and variegates. I have a rare and unusual plant business, mostly online - and grow everything in a 20x25 plant house that I pretty much built by hand - and have about 27,000 plants crammed in there! I'm in coastal Massachusetts on the north border.

My name is Leon and have morphed into a rabid Sans lover, since I got my first S. cylindrica in the 1990's. I will keep a couple of trifasciata about, but I really enjoy some of the more uncommon, hardy species. Hoping to see my masonia become a man-eating monster. : ) Naturally I was very excited ( & blessed) to receive a deserti cutting last year. Not a big fan of variegated varieties. I admire enthusiasts who maintain large Sans collections. My fantasy is to get a large greenhouse and have a dedicated section for an expanded collection to share with other Sans aficionados. Thank you for the warm welcome, Leon
